Can yeast dough be frozen?

Many housewives ask themselves the question: is it possible to freeze yeast dough? Will the taste of the dish change after defrosting the dough? Will the products rise after defrosting? The answer is very simple - yeast dough can be frozen without problems, and products made from thawed dough will not differ in any way from products made from fresh yeast dough.

Freezing such a dough is sometimes very convenient and beneficial. After all, you can cook it when you have time for this, and then freeze it in portions and use it when it suits you.

To use frozen dough, it is enough to take it out in the evening and leave it in the refrigerator overnight so that it slowly thaws. In the morning you can start baking products.

How to freeze yeast dough step by step instructions with photos

Step 1

 

For work, we need yeast dough, a baking dish, cling film.

Step 2

 

If you know for sure that you are preparing the dough for freezing, then initially add 4-6% more yeast to the dough than indicated in the recipe. Also try to use high protein flour for kneading. For kneading, use slow-acting yeast. Instant yeast will not work here.

Step 3

 

After kneading, let the dough rise a little and proceed to freezing. There is no need to let the dough rise a second time.

Step 4

 

Divide the dough into portions, wrap in several layers of cling film and send to the freezer.

Step 5

 

It is also very convenient to freeze the dough in portions, laying it out in those forms in which the dough will rise and bake after defrosting. Lubricate the form with a thin layer of vegetable oil and lay out the required amount of dough. Wrap the form with the dough in several layers of cling film and send it to the freezer for storage.
